Lesson sadly not learned: Elysse Perry makes 32 to help put her team in a good position, gets cramp, retires for some therapy & comes back to secure the win vs INDW; Smriti Mandhana makes 88 to put her team in a good position, gets cramp, gets out on a big hit & India lose vs ENGW. #CricketSky

With her 4th catch in the AUS-W v NZ-W game, Suzie Bates broke the record for the number of catches taken in a Women's World Cup ODI - just 1 day after Vishni Gunurate had equaled the old 3-catch record of Gill Smith & Anne Gordon. Another fielding record for super Suzie #CricketSky

As Laura Jolly rightly highlights (www.cricket.com.au/news/4366039...), many congrats to Megan Schutt for her 300th wicket across all formats. Interestingly, 16 of these (8 now in ODIs + 8 in T20Is) have been stumped by Healy - which must be some kind of record for a pacer-keeper combo. #CricketSky
